Texture Help

[nrofl]

Ok so im planning a space-station type wad and I imported some textures in the Graphic(Doom) format. I have (What I assume) fully working PNAMES and TEXTUREx files, and GZDoomBuilder can load the WAD with no problem, but the textures display this:

Does anyone know whats going on?

Did you go through these steps?

My original textures are in png format.

 

1. Open Slade3 and load the images into your map.

Patches between P_ markers and Flats between F_ markers

Highlight the patches and click on 'Convert Gfx to...'

 

2. Select 'Doom Gfx (Paletted)

Click on 'Convert All'

 

3. The patches are now in Doom format

Save the map

 

4. Highlight the Flats and click on 'Convert Gfx to...'

 

5. Select 'Doom Flat (Paletted)

Click on 'Convert All'

 

6. The flats are now in Doom format

Save the map

 

Now come the important steps to include the patches as textures.

 

7. Highlight the patches and rightclick to open this menu

Select 'Graphics', then 'Add to TEXTUREx'

 

8. This message pops up

Click on 'Yes'

 

9. Select 'Import from Base Resource Archive'

which creates the TEXTURE1 and PNAMES lumps

Save the map

 

Now load your map into GZDoom Builder or whatever editor you prefer

 

10. These are the textures to use for attachment to linedefs

 

11. These are the flats to attach to floors/ceilings

 

12. Map Preview in GZDB-BF

Not without seeing the PK3, in this case.

When I do step 9 (My mistake was that i chose the "Create New (Empty)") I get this error:

what do they mean by "Base Resource Archive"? Like Doom2.wad? Because I opened that in Slade and still got the same error.

You do not need to open DOOM2.wad separately.

When you select 'Import from Base Resource Archive' the DOOM2 resource names

are loaded automatically into TEXTURE1 and PNAMES in addition to your patches as long as DOOM2.wad is selected in the top toolbar.
